도 1은 종래 기술에 따른 세제 공급장치를 나타낸 사시도로서, 상기 도면을 참조하여 종래 세제 공급장치의 구성 및 작동을 설명하면 다음과 같다.1 is a perspective view showing a detergent supply apparatus according to the prior art, the configuration and operation of the conventional detergent supply apparatus with reference to the drawings as follows.
종래의 세제 공급장치는 예비세탁 밸브(11)와 본세탁 밸브(12)로 이루어진 급수밸브(10)와, 상기 급수밸브(10)의 각 밸브에 호스(21,22)로 연결됨과 아울러 예비세탁 급수로(31)와 본세탁 급수로(32), 그리고 헹굼세탁 급수로(33)로 분리 구획되어 이루어진 디스펜서(30)와, 상기 디스펜서(30)의 각 급수로에 대응하는 예비세탁 세제투입부(41), 본세탁 세제투입부(42), 헹굼세탁 세제투입부(43)로 분리 구획되어 상기 디스펜서(30)에 인출 가능하게 삽입되는 세제통(40)으로 구성된다.The conventional detergent supply device is connected to the water supply valve 10 consisting of a pre-washing valve 11 and the main washing valve 12, and hoses 21 and 22 to each valve of the water supply valve 10, and also to pre-washing. A dispenser 30 which is divided into a water supply passage 31, a main washing water supply passage 32, and a rinse washing water supply passage 33, and a pre-washing detergent injection portion corresponding to each of the water supply passages of the dispenser 30. (41), the main laundry detergent dispensing unit 42 and the rinsing laundry detergent dispensing unit 43 is composed of a detergent container 40 is inserted into the dispenser 30 to be withdrawn.
그리하여, 사용자가 상기 세제통(40)에 분리 구획된 각 세제투입부 내측에세제 및 섬유 유연제를 투입한 후 세탁기를 작동시키면, 제어부의 제어에 의해 각 세탁과정이 진행됨에 따라 각 급수로와 연결된 급수밸브(10)를 통하여 급수된 세탁수가 세제나 섬유 유연제와 혼합되어 세탁조 내부로 유입된다.Thus, if the user operates the washing machine after putting the detergent and the fabric softener inside each detergent input section separated into the detergent container 40, the washing water is controlled by the control unit of the water supply connected to each water supply passage The wash water supplied through the valve 10 is mixed with a detergent or a fabric softener and introduced into the washing tank.
보다 상세히 설명하면, 예비 세탁시에는 세탁수가 예비세탁 밸브(11)를 통해 공급된 후 예비세탁 호스(21)를 통하여 디스펜서(30) 내측의 예비세탁 급수로(31)로 공급되고, 상기 예비세탁 급수로(31)의 하측에 대응 위치하는 세제통(40)의 예비세탁 세제투입부(41) 내로 유입되며, 상기 예비세탁 세제투입부(41)에 수용된 세제와 혼합되어 세탁조 내부로 투입되고, 본 세탁시에 세탁수는 본세탁 밸브(12), 본세탁 호스(22), 본세탁 급수로(32)를 순차적으로 지나 세제통(40) 내측의 본세탁 세제투입부(42)에 수용된 세제와 혼합되어 세탁조 내부로 투입됨으로써, 세탁조의 마찰력과 더불어 세제의 분해작용에 의해 세탁성능을 향상시키게 된다.In more detail, in the pre-washing, the washing water is supplied through the pre-washing valve 11 and then supplied to the pre-washing water supply passage 31 inside the dispenser 30 through the pre-washing hose 21. It is introduced into the pre-washing detergent input portion 41 of the detergent container 40 corresponding to the lower side of the water supply passage 31, mixed with the detergent contained in the pre-washing detergent input portion 41 is introduced into the washing tank, During washing, the washing water is mixed with the detergent contained in the main washing detergent injecting unit 42 inside the detergent container 40 through the main washing valve 12, the main washing hose 22, and the main washing water supply passage 32 in sequence. In addition, by being introduced into the washing tank, the washing performance is improved by the friction action of the washing tank and the decomposition of the detergent.
그리고, 헹굼세탁시에는 예비세탁 밸브(11)와 본세탁 밸브(12)를 동시에 개방함에 의해 세탁수를 동시에 공급시켜 디스펜서(30)의 헹굼세탁 급수로(33) 측으로 세탁수를 공급하여 세탁수가 헹굼세탁 세제투입부(43)에 수용된 섬유 유연제와 혼합되도록 한 후, 세탁조 내측으로 투입시킴으로써, 섬유 유연제의 작용에 의해 세탁물의 촉감을 향상시키게 된다.At the time of rinsing washing, washing water is simultaneously supplied by opening the pre-washing valve 11 and the main washing valve 12 at the same time to supply the washing water to the rinsing washing water supply path 33 of the dispenser 30 to wash the washing water. After mixing with the fabric softener contained in the rinse laundry detergent inlet portion 43, by introducing into the washing tank, the texture of the laundry is improved by the action of the fabric softener.
